Colours of Maleny. Maleny. Qld

I really love painting up in the hinterland around Maleny,Montville etc. On this day it was in the afternoon and i saw this scene happening in front of me. I set up and began to paint noticing all the colours that nature was presenting to me. I was really happy with my results. It was the colours that grabbed my eye. This would look great in a beautiful frame in any room. This was painted in oils on marine ply.
